To consider the above application. Minutes: Consideration was given to the above planning application.
The following attended the meeting and spoke on the application: Councillor Andrew Gregory (ward councillor) and Mr Colin Barnes (agent).
RESOLVED:
That the application be REFUSED for the following reasons:
1 the application site is located outside of designated settlement boundaries in the Open Countryside and is not an allocated employment site where new employment and industrial development is directed towards as per the Cheshire East Local Plan Strategy (CELPS) and Site Allocations and Development Policies Document (SADPD). The principle of the development is not accepted as the proposals are not identified as an exceptional form of development permitted within the open countryside and do not present employment uses that by the nature of the business proposed where known (noting many are proposed on a speculative basis) are essential for them to be located in a countryside and out of settlement location. Due to the site’s location there is poor access to a means of a variety of transport such as buses, cycling, walking or trains and the development would be reliant on private vehicles such as cars/vans and as such is not considered to be a sustainable location. It is not considered that job creation and nature conservation and forestry mitigation and improvements described within the submission outweigh the conflict with the development plan in this instance. It is considered therefore that the proposals are contrary to policies MP1, PG2, PG6, SD1, SD2, EG1, EG2, EG5, SE2 and CO1 of the CELPS and RUR10 of the SADPD.
In the event of any changes being needed to the wording of the Committee’s decision (such as to delete, vary or add Conditions/Informatives/planning obligations or reasons for approval/refusal) prior to the decision being issued, the Head of Planning has delegated authority to do so in consultation with the Chair of the Strategic Planning Board, provided that the changes do not exceed the substantive nature of the Committee’s decision. |
